Here at Moon Mother Hemp, our most important lessons in gratitude come from the farm—when to sow our seeds, what companion planting practices will ensure the quality our full spectrum 100% organic CBD tinctures, balms and topicals, and how the phases of the Moon influence our harvest, mission and business practices. The benefits of expressing gratitude are proven to:
- Improve physical and psychological health, mental strength, and sleep
- Increase empathy
- Reduce aggression
- Enhance self-esteem
- Provide more social connections
Who couldn’t use a little more of that right now?
This season, with change in the air and as we settle in for the winter, we want to share a simple mindfulness meditation from the farm to carry you through the months ahead.
A Gratitude Walk:
On your next walk, breathe deeply in through your nose and out through your mouth and reflect on what surrounds you.
